This is now merged, but a little later than anticipated. Please can patch 2 & 3 be applied to stable >= v4.2. The upstream commits are: 6f06a2c45d8d714ea3b11a360b4a7191e52acaa4 ("MIPS: uaccess: Take EVA into account in __copy_from_user()") d6a428fb583738ad685c91a684748cdee7b2a05f ("MIPS: uaccess: Take EVA into account in [__]clear_user") As stated above, I'll provide backports for v3.15 <= version < v4.2.
